Episode:Remembrance Of the DaleksThe Doctor: The seventh (Sylvester McCoy)

Clearly sick and tired of being a galactic joke for their famous inability to climb stairs thanks to design issues and BBC budgets, the Daleks got the last laugh – not that they generally giggle – in 1988’s Remembrance Of The Daleks. In the story, set in 1963, the Doctor and Ace (Sophie Aldred) encounter the metal-dwelling mutants as a civil war between Dalek factions spills over on to the Earth. Relatively early in the episode, the Doctor ends up trapped in a school cellar as a Dalek teleporter operator menaces him. Assuming he’ll be safer up the stairs, the Doctor climbs, only to watch in horror as the cyborg creature rises to follow him. Gadzooks! These things are dangerous after all!

Who knocked four times. The prophecy of Ten's time ending with "he will knock four times". You think "THE MASTER!!". The Master is in the two-parter, crazier as ever. But who was the prophecy referring to? Wilf. THAT made me scream in shock. More

Face of Boe

I think that the revelation about Captain Jack being the face of Boe was a great one. Although I still haven't seen many episodes pre 2005... More

missed opportunities

I thought it was a shame they never made Rory the master, as that would have been epic and explained a great deal about river song, and Arthur Darvill would have been awesome playing such a twisted character More

Catherine Tate being absolutely bloody magnificent and the finest companion since Sarah Jane caused many jaws to drop in all fairness.

I think possibly the most shocking moment from New Who is the revelation that Amy has been a Ganger for the last few episodes and the real Amy is holed up in an army base giving birth. Shame they squandered what was a very effective cliffhanger. More

es, I loved her and thought she was brilliant. When she has her memory wiped made me cry.*
*I cry all the time at Dr Who.
love Dr. Who, but I actually had to make an account here just to say this:
Catherine Tate was SO INCREDIBLY IRRITATING that after the first two episodes she was in I just stopped watching entirely.
She was so unlikeable and awful that there are now 15 episodes of Dr. Who I refuse to ever watch.. one actress was so shockingly bad that I had to not watch one of my favourite shows.
That's the only time this has happened to me in my whole TV life, the woman is appalling. More

John hunt

Empire and anyone wanting to know, a simple internet search will tell you who John Hunt is, I know before the episode aired but was not expecting him to appear until the 50th Anni show. This has been one of Moffat's better (if not best) stories More

eah, I agree with that. That was amazing. You were really like WHAAAAAT?! Then the next week when they just brushed it off and I kind of felt like Annie Wilkes in Misery! Brilliant for that week while it lasted though. More

By this point David Tennant's departure plans were sadly all but confirmed. Then at the end of the episode, just as we're about to see him united with Rose, he gets shot by a dakek. The regeneration process starts as the credits role and geeks across the land heads expload into wondering if the BBC have pulled an managed to somehow achieve Abrams level of secrecy to give us the 11th doctor in the following weeks episode. Though ultimately a bluff, it was such a ballsy move that that there was no feeling of anti-climax. More

RE: The Biggest Doctor Who Jaw-Droppers

Oh, and the most jaw-dropping thing about recent Doctor Who...
...wait for it...
...is that Neil Gaiman is talentless.... and...wait for it.... clueless!or all his promises about the Cybermen and his references to the "Uncanny Valley he's ultimately exposed as a tired, put-upon hack.
"Put me down I hate you!" Says a precocious teenager to a Cyberman.
"Who are you?" "I'm bored." Says a post-precocious Nebula award-winning writer readying himself for a career writing Hollyoaks.
